Walkable to Mayo Clinic

This hotel was a great choice for me since I was able to walk to the Mayo Clinic. The construction by the clinic makes it almost impossible to park. I lost my car fob and the front desk clerk found it for me and called to tell me. He went above and beyond.

Disappointing/Pictures Not Accurate

When I booked our room I didn’t realize there was an Aspen Select and an Aspen Suites and both are shown in the hotel main picture on this site. The hotel was not clean, the furniture and overall hotel is worn and starting to run down. The continental Breakfast was a few donuts some bread and some muffins, no hot food at all. When we arrived there was no one at the front desk for over 15 minutes for check in, the parking lot is pretty small and a tight fit. Front desk staff was not attentive or unfriendly. The chain lock in the room was broken off. The location was good as we walked across the street to St, Mary’s- Mayo Clinic and that was the only thing good about this hotel. I will shuttle to a different location than ever choose to stay here again.

Amazing warm and friendly stay

Our family was at Rochester for two weeks for my kiddos heart surgery. As you can imagine, it was a stressful time. The staff at Aspen select and Aspen suites were incredibly helpful and friendly. Their smiles and warm personalities made us stay wonderful. I will definitely be staying there again on our follow up visits. They made it at home away from home. The rooms were always clean, tidy, and comfortable. The convenience of being right across from the hospital was so helpful! And it had plenty of restaurants within five minutes of walking. We so appreciate you all.

It my be a little picky but the sink had a small crack in it that did not affect the use of the sink but could in the future. But, without a doubt It was a very good stay. The room felt inviting and clean! This was the cleanest hotel I have stayed in that I can remember. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Definitely will be my go to when staying in Rochester.

Mostly ok, but there was that one thing...

My stay was mostly ok. The staff was friendly and helpful, the room was clean and comfortable. The hotel is older and it does show, but it is maintained pretty well. The thing with this hotel is that something always goes wrong in a way that ruins the experience. Last time, the front desk person was very abrasive and unwilling to help. This time, the water the room was turned off at around 8:30 am and was still off like 10 minutes later when I left. I had no idea that would happen. I mean, why would you expect something like that? The housekeeping staff that I asked about it was just like, yeah the water was turned off, like it is a routine thing. I happened to be up early and mostly on my way out, but on an average day, there is every chance I would have been in the shower at that time. Instead I had just used the bathroom and couldn't wash my hands, which was maybe even worse. And really wanted to brush my teeth after breakfast but that wasn't an option. So if you stay here, definitely ask about the water situation when you check in!
